Overview
The Coats 16,000 lb Scissor Alignment Lift is supplied by Liftnow on Sourcewell and NASPO cooperative contracts, with freight and installation coordinated on a single purchase order.
The Coats 16K Scissor Alignment Lift is a 16,000 lb capacity drive-on scissor lift with 203 in. runways, available surface mount (4TS16OSAR1) or flush mount (4TS16OSAR1FM), in an open-front configuration for wheel alignment work. Coats states it is intended for cars, light and medium duty trucks, vans and EVs, and that it accommodates an 84 in.,160 in. wheelbase for four-wheel alignments. It uses vertical breakaway/breakout cylinders to assist lifting and reduce operating pressure, non-flex double-wall runways with an internal full-length "Z" rail, front radius (turn) plate pockets and rear slip plates. It suits alignment bays and general service shops, including fleet and municipal shops, that need medium-duty capacity on a drive-on alignment rack rather than swing-arm lift.
Configurations
Liftnow can quote any of these on the same cooperative contract.
